For those who ride motorcycle - Goldwing in the mountain

For those who know that a Goldwing is mostly a big highway bike here is a video that shows that it can almost be ridden as a sport bike. You need to be pretty skilled though. I do not know what type of bike is following the GW but we can hear it touch on every curve.

Nice road. Looks like the road I live on. What is the location? My guess is the NC mountains.

A,
I posted that vid back in Jan...http://www.xoutpost.com/lounge/42412-...ycle-vids.html
The GW rider is a well known, very skilled rider and he wanted
to show how a big Wing can haul azz, in the hands of an
exceptional rider.

The vid is of a section of Deal's Gap aka Tail of the Dragon,
western NC, about an hour run through some of the best
2 lanes from our joint here in Waynesville.
BR,mD

Deal's Gap is hugely pumped and overrated, imo...but most of the
roads leading to it, esp from the NC side, are sensational.

I'll bet that "wing" has been modified. The pipes are too low on a stock set up. I would also guess the foot rest have been removed. All that being said, that's some nice "dippin". That is definitely a Ryder ......Phil
